Answer:

10392.30N

Explanation:

We proceed by computing the individual force exerted by the boats

For the first boat

The angle is 30 degree to the vertical

Hence

Force = F cos θ

F=6000 cos 30

F=6000*0.866

F=5196.15 N

Since the boats are two and also at the same angle and also exerting the same force

The Net force = 2*5196.15

Net force=10392.30N
